I believe the point to be made is that no man of the flesh is any sort of ultimate authority. The ecclesia[church] was not formed in the 1st century, it was formed in the desert, 2000 years prior to Messiah. It was Messiah(Alef-Tav aka the Word) who led the ecclesia through the wilderness. It was the AlefTav who spoke the commandments, who had been from the beginning and who spoke all things into existence. The Alef-Tav came in the form of flesh, corrected what the Levitical priesthood had corrupted, nailed that corruption[dogma] to the cross and thus it was to be from then on, the instructions[doctrine] spoken by the Alef-Tav in the desert are not to be added to or taken away from because those instructions[doctrine] was in place before all things were created.

No argument, totally agree. And each of us is ultimately responsible for our own actions to him, not men.
